have been installing debian buster on a eeepc1000h after upgrading it with a ssd a couple of weeks ago. since i wanted to use i3 i quit the installation process at the point where they give you their options of window-managers and did the rest by hand. wifi didn-t work out of the box, but there is a howto for it:

sc3 via IDE or emacs starts up fine and makes the obligatory {SinOsc.ar}.play-"beep" successfully (have-nt done more with it on that machine though).

tidalcycles needs about 30% cpu-power even when idle, so rather unusable.

since firefox is *very* slow on this machine i use falkon.

thunderbird is also a bit slow, but if you-re patient it-s ok :)

it-s a pity that sc3 doesn-t work without window-manager, as for this machine running sc3 via emacs from the console would be perfect:

Can anyone recommend a distro that still supports these well.
I had to d a reinstall a couple of years ago (debian) and although it was
never exactly quick before, it's been dog slow ever since :(

I have a EeePC900 which ran sidux quite well back in 2008. It now has AntiX on it which runs fine but the function keys don't work. That could possibly be due to a cheap ebay replacement keyboard (the original died completely) or the lack OS support. Years ago Debian had 2 specific packages, eeepc-acpi-scripts and eee-control which used to enable these but their most recent versions would not install.

AntiX is pretty lightweight so is well worth trying.
